' iyiiefiei and is subject-eil te 'the blows of use, the load I nrried by the Wheel Will of course rise and all, the effect of which is to cause the roclrers to tilt and to transmit the strain of the i load from spring to spring so that every I spring in the Wheel will nt all. times be oerrying its due proportion of the loscl enti the resilience oi? all of the springs will be utilized in earrving the load and taking up the i0 shocks of trsifel.

Having thus described my invention claim:

A resilient Wheel comprising an inner -I telly., an outer felly, elliptic springs com- I l prising half elliptic members between seid l Feines, rockers between adjacent springs te l which the ends of seid springs are pivoted, l and ineens noting on the rockers for aCljusting the tension of the springs. l

:le A resilient Wheel comprising innernntl l enter iellies, elliptic springs comprising i half elliptic members ittecliecl at 'their inidf length to seid fellies respectively, the ends l oi said members being connected :incl coni- I rockers pivotecl interinedintel the springs to which the eyes of contiguous |l springs are pivoted and means acting on' the rockers for adjusting the tension o1 the I springs. .-10 i resi ent Wheel comprising inner;

resiiient wheel comprising innerl 'springs comprising mein and outer fellies, elliptic springs comprising half elliptic members attached to said fellies respectively, eyes at the ends of seid springs, rockers to which the eyesof con- Jtiguous springs are pivo'ted, said rockers comprising plates7 bolts engaging the inner telly and having heads to which the plates of the rockers seid bolts for moving them inward or outward to very the 'tension of the springs.

A resilient Wheel comprising inner and outer fellies, elliptic springs comprising half elliptic members attached nt their midlengths to said fellies respectively,7 and linving eyes i t their ends, bolts passing through the inner felly and having heads lying between the ends of adjacent springs and rockers coniprisinfT plates pivotecl on opposite sides of. said. needs, the eyes of contiguous springs being pivot-ed between the enel-s of the plates or the rockers and nuts on said bolts for locking them in place after adjustment.
